It's better than keeping them artificially locked behind a launcher for no reason whatsoever, yes.
Lmao
So just let me get that straight.
You also don't like exclusives and want ppl to be able to play the way they want.
...and somehow Playstation - actively releasing their games on PC, investing time, money & effort - are worse than Epic who just want to lure ppl to their store/launcher and actively taking away the choice of playing method?
Alrighty then...
Epic also releases their games on PC lol
And they release them day 1, without the multiple year wait from console release, and not as shitty ports. Fuck yes that's better than PlayStation, it's a no-brainer.
I'm truly baffled that anyone could have this take seriously. PC =/= Steam.
Wow... Seriously? No they release it for their launcher exclusively not for pc.
If you're talking platforms Sony is WAY MORE OPEN than Epic ever will be, we can just pray they fail hard and this practice doesn't become the norm (again)
So anything that only releases on Steam is also an exclusive and "not for pc"?
Because Epic Games Launcher is only PC? Then Sony is also better than any company that releases only on Steam for PC?
Yes. If it's paid to ONLY be on Steam.
If we follow your "logic" yes.
